  • To install the software download the link, and open the file that was downloaded and follow the prompts during installation. You do not need to change anything from its default setting. 
  • If you currently have the software installed it will ask you if you want to install/re-install the drivers. You can re-install if you think it is necessary
  • Once the installation is done you will be prompted to restart your computer. We recomend saving all open files you are working on Prior to clicking OK on the box shown as it will force a restart as soon as the installer closes.
  • Once the restart is complete, follow the steps below.

If you already have the Driver and Software downloaded for your scanner, look for the Calibration Wizard in your windows Start menu and open it up.
